Bhaskar,
I agree with the philosphical note. I heard somewhere once that security is more state of mind than actual goal. Somethign that requires constant work.
That and any system can be made 100% secure until someone access it.

It appears to be a vulnerability if the IPSec VPN is not properly configured.

On a more philosophical note, absolute security doesn't exist in this universe. But that doesn't prevent security from existing in a practical sense. We know that most door locks can be picked by a professional in seconds. But that doesn't prevent most of us from feeling reasonably secure in our homes.

Saw this on Slash dot today. Thought it was relevant with the discussion of VPN for remote work recently.
Looks like there is a security flaw in VPN:
